Skipping to Beginning of Current Track or to Previous Tracks
(Rewind DPSS):
Touch the [ 4 ].
Touch once to rewind to the beginning of the current track, twice
to rewind to the beginning of the previous track, and so forth.
You can skip up to nine tracks.

number of tracks.
Skipping to Later Tracks (Fast Forward DPSS):
Touch the [ ¢ ].
Touch once to fast forward to the next track, twice to fast forward

You can skip up to nine tracks.
Playback is continued after the tape is fast forwarded by the
indicated number of tracks.
• During the first three seconds of each track, the previous track is
considered the "current" track. If you press the 4 button during
that period, the tape rewinds to the beginning of the previous
track and not the one you are listening to.
• The DPSS function "knows" where a track begins by detecting
the blank space preceding it (the space between tracks).
However, when the blank space lasts for less than four seconds
or contains noise, DPSS may not operate correctly.
Furthermore,quiet intervals within a song are detected as "blank
spaces" if they last for four seconds or more.
